Dear Madam or Sir,
Dear Madam or Sir,
the Bundeswehr's equipment leaves much to be desired. The same is true for the state of the German armaments policy, argues Joachim Weber.

The Security Policy Working Papers are intended to stimulate debate and help explain current issues.
Dear Madam or Sir,
German foreign policy is beginning to realise the geopolitical importance of South Asia. While the main focus is on India, Pakistan is often overlooked. In our Working Paper No. 11/2018, I thus argue for a coherent strategy that takes the entire subcontinent into account. The paper is based on the study trip of our 2018 Course for Senior Officials that focuses on Pakistan and India. You will find the paper on our website: https://www.baks.bund.de/en/working-papers
Dear Madam or Sir,
in early 2018, NATO decided to adapt its command structure, and Germany offered to host one of the two new headquarters envisaged. The new Joint Support and Enabling Command will be based in Ulm, Southern Germany, where the Bundeswehr Joint Support Service already runs a Multinational Joint Headquarters. In our Working Paper No.10/2018, Major Philipp Lange discusses the German role in the new Command and points to remaining issues to be solved in the Alliance.
